NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW:

"A triumph of craftsmanship. Style and content are in complete harmony. The characters are vividly real; their functions, as symbols in the author's larger perceptions, is unforced and organic.... The controlled point is one of the technical joys of the book.... AN EXILE is an intensely Southern book, but like the best of Southern fiction is not self-consciously so. The basic human problem cuts across geography."
